Jackson, a bouncy, playful dog who adores kids and water. Perfect for an active family ready for endless fun.

Adoption Forms

STAFF FAVORITE SPOTLIGHT: JACKSON! โญ๏ธ

If you’re looking for a dog who’s well-mannered, playful, and hilarious, Jacksonโ€™s your guy. At 6 years old, heโ€™s past the puppy phase but still has that bouncy boxer energy that keeps life fun!

Hereโ€™s what his previous foster had to say:

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œThis dog has the BEST manners.โ€

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHeโ€™s calm, but still playful. A total sweetheart.โ€

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHe LOVES kids, just better with ones 10+ because he doesn’t realize he’s a tank.โ€

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œNot a big barker! Just lets you know when someone’s at the door, then chills.โ€

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHeโ€™s super smart: he knows โ€˜crate,โ€™ โ€˜off,โ€™ โ€˜down,โ€™ โ€˜outside,โ€™ and more!โ€

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œCrate-trained, house-trained, no aggression, and LOVES car rides.โ€

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œHe even tries to join you in the shower, heโ€™s a total water dog!โ€

Jackson does best with an active family and would thrive in a home where he can be part of the fun. Walks, beach days, road trips, heโ€™s down for it all. Just give him a couple of weeks to settle in and youโ€™ll have a lifelong buddy whoโ€™s equal parts snuggle bug and adventure pup.

โญ๏ธ Adopt for $5 or foster for FREE. If you foster, food, a crate, and supplies are included. APPLY HERE: https://www.pasadenatx.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Adoption-and-Foster-Applications-10

This past Saturday, aspiring cadets explored fire stations and took strides toward becoming Pasadenaโ€™s dedicated heroes.

๐Ÿš’๐Ÿ”ฅ Cadets on the Move! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿš’
This past Saturday, our current cadets in the academy took a big step in their journey to becoming Pasadenaโ€™s Bravest ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿš’๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿš’

They spent the day visiting all of our stations โ€” including the ones they may soon call home ๐Ÿ โค๏ธ. These station visits give them a chance to meet the crews, learn the layout, and get a feel for the day-to-day operations that keep our community safe! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿšจ

Inmate Rem was saved from the death walk by a bighearted foster home. Here’s what good people have to say about her.

Adoption Forms

Meet today’s Foster Feature: Rem! ๐Ÿถ

She has been a โœจ SUPERSTAR โœจ in her foster home. Check out what they said about her:

“I got Rem off of the urgent list with only a few hours to spare and Iโ€™m glad I did because she is truly a hidden gem. Sheโ€™s incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loves nothing more than cuddling up for quiet evenings on the couch. Our nightly routine has become her favoriteโ€”just the two of us, unwinding together.

She has a huge heart and forms deep, loyal bonds with the people she trusts. Rem walks good on a leash, is treat-motivated, and eager to pleaseโ€”sheโ€™ll sit right away for a snack. I have three other dogs of different sizes and she does well with them. While she may need a little time to warm up, especially with new canine friends, slow introductions go a long wayโ€”and once she feels safe, sheโ€™s playful and full of joy.

Sheโ€™s also been gentle and respectful with my 4-year-old grandson, understanding boundaries. People constantly stop to admire her, and itโ€™s easy to see why. Sheโ€™s such a beautiful girl and she’s already started the meds for her heartworm treatment. Iโ€™m excited to see her forever family discover just how special she truly is.”

Poor Candace needs your big heart to fix her and home her so she doesn’t die due to irresponsible previous owners.

Hi, I’m Candace. I have so much love in my heart but the days are getting quieter, colder, and shorter here.

I have something called entropion, which makes my eyelids roll inward. It hurts sometimes, but Iโ€™m on medication and the kind people here are doing everything they can to help me feel better. Iโ€™ll need surgery soonโ€ฆ if I make it that far.

๐Ÿšจ But they told me Iโ€™m on the Urgent List, and that means I donโ€™t have much time left. Maybe youโ€™re the one who can change my story. Maybe youโ€™re my miracle. All I need is one chance. Pleaseโ€ฆ donโ€™t let my story end here.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ˜” My name is Miguel and I was brought back because of a landlord.

I didnโ€™t do anything wrong. One day I had a home, a bed, someone calling me โ€œgood boyโ€โ€ฆ and the next, I was back in this loud, lonely place.

Iโ€™m just a young pup who needs love, patience, and someone who understands that puppies need time to grow. I know a few commands, Iโ€™m learning to like my crate, and Iโ€™ll do just about anything for a treat.

They say Iโ€™d do best with an active familyโ€”someone who can help me be my best self.
But Iโ€™m on the Urgent List now, and time is running out ๐Ÿ’”. Please donโ€™t let this be the end of my story….

Check out bounced inmate Hank’s incredible journey from Texas to his forever home in Canada.

ย Adoption Forms

๐ŸŽ‰ From the shelter to happily ever after in Canada! ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Thanks to an amazing partnership with Three Little Pitties and the incredible dedication of foster rock star Erin, our sweet boy Hank (formerly Huck) found his forever home!

โžก๏ธ Check out what Erin had to say about Hank’s journey:

“While fostering Hank, formerly known as Huck, he needed entropion eye surgery. But the eye never healed properly so I had to take him to more doctor visits and get different opinions. He was put on two eye medications (a gel and some drops) which he would have needed for the rest of his life.

Ultimately, I talked with vets and Three Little Pitties and we decided it was best to get the eye removed. He didnโ€™t have much vision in it anyways so we didnโ€™t think removing the eye would hinder him from anything. He healed beautifully from that surgery and lived a great life after!

After having him a year and 4 months, he finally got adopted and made his way to Canada on Three Little Pitties bus. Now he lives as an only child to his young parents who recently got engaged and spoil the heck out of him.”

Prisoner Florence yearns for a safe place on your lap before she has to be put to death.

๐Ÿ˜” If you look deep in my eyes, you can see how much I’m struggling…

Hi, Iโ€™m Florence. They say Iโ€™m sweet and gentle, but shelter life is hard for me. The noise, the stress, the constant change… itโ€™s a lot for a quiet soul like mine. I keep to myself, not because I donโ€™t want love, but because I donโ€™t know if itโ€™s safe to hope anymore.

Beneath my shy shell is a heart full of love, waiting for someone who sees me. Someone patient. Someone kind. Someone who believes Iโ€™m worth it

๐Ÿ’” But Iโ€™m running out of time. Iโ€™m on the Urgent List now, and I donโ€™t know how many more days Iโ€™ll get. Do you have room in your heart to save me? I promise I’ll love you forever.

With a Sad Heart,
Florence

๐Ÿ’” But the people here say Iโ€™m running out of time. That Iโ€™m on something called the Urgent List. I donโ€™t fully understand what that means, but I know itโ€™s not good. I just need one person to believe Iโ€™m worth saving.

Good news at the Animal Shelter. Short list Macy is thriving in her new home having a blast.

Adoption Forms

Happy Tails Update! โค๏ธ๐Ÿถ

Macy, who was on the Urgent List, was saved and is living her best life with her new family! Check out what they had to say:

“We recently adopted Macy and were prepared to give her some time to decompress and adjust to her new home, but she came through the door ready to go! She is the sweetest girl youโ€™ll ever meet with such a big personality. Sheโ€™s so funny and smart it shocked us! Sheโ€™s a very well-tempered and well-behaved girl who loves playtime, cuddles, baths, and naps!

Coming out of shelter life, she hardly knew anything (how to sit, jump up on things, stairs, her name, etc) but sheโ€™s so determined to overcome her obstacles and sheโ€™s working so hard! She got the stairs down in 24 hours and she consistently knows the command โ€œsitโ€. Our first dog is her best friend and they love to play outside and cuddle on the couch! Sheโ€™s so excited to have a dog bed, toys, and endless love! Still working on potty training, but sheโ€™s worth every clean up! We love our girl so much!”

Once a cherished companion, Buttercup, her owner has died, she ended up in the Animal Shelter and now on the execution list.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ’” Hi, I’m Buttercup. I’m in the shelter because my owner died…

I never thought Iโ€™d be here. I had a home. A person who loved me. But then one dayโ€ฆ they were gone. Forever. And no one came for me.

Now Iโ€™m here in the shelter. Itโ€™s loud. Itโ€™s scary sometimes. At first, I was too heartbroken but slowly I started to remember how to smile and how it feels to trust again.

But Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ˜”. That means I’m running out of time…

Iโ€™m not asking for much โ€” just a quiet place to rest my head, a human to love, and someone to help me feel safe again. Could that someone be you?

๐Ÿ’” No one came to save me… am I not good enough?

Everyone here at the shelter says Iโ€™m a good girl. Iโ€™m calm, loving, and a well-behaved medium-sized pup. I went on a doggie date and was gentle and friendly. I walk beautifully on a leash, get along with people and kids, and Iโ€™m peaceful around ducks.

But stillโ€ฆ no one has chosen me. I keep getting overlooked, passed by, and left waiting.

I donโ€™t know what I did wrong. Why does no one want to take me home? Iโ€™m still here, still hoping for someone to see me for who I really am.

But time is running out. Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ˜”, and I donโ€™t know how much longer I have.

Could you be the one to save me, and give me the home and love Iโ€™ve been waiting for?

An Animal Shelter puppy has been has been let down twice due to irresponsible owners and now on express death row. She’s free to adopt today but maybe not tomorrow.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ˜” Maybe I’ll just lay here and hope that someone will notice meโ€ฆ

Maybe Iโ€™m just the puppy no one wants. Maybe Iโ€™m the puppy that doesnโ€™t deserve a home.

I was returned because I was just a puppy, and my owner didnโ€™t have time for me. All I ever wanted was to be loved, to have a family, but Iโ€™m starting to wonder if thatโ€™s something Iโ€™ll never have.

Iโ€™ve been here for so long now, and every day feels a little harder. Iโ€™m lonely. Iโ€™m sad. My heart aches more than I can explain. Iโ€™m a calm girl who loves pets and hugs, but no one seems to notice….

And nowโ€ฆ Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ’”. Time is running out, and Iโ€™m starting to lose hope. I donโ€™t know what I did wrong, but I donโ€™t know how much longer I can keep waiting. Could you be the one to save me? Pleaseโ€ฆ donโ€™t let me fade away here.

Animal Shelter Ralph’s got better places to be than the short road of life he’s currently looking at.

Adoption Forms

Hi, Iโ€™m Ralphโ€ฆ and Iโ€™m struggling in my kennel. ๐Ÿ’”

Iโ€™m a medium-sized boy, and the shelter is a little overwhelming for me. The noise, the unfamiliar facesโ€”it makes me anxious. But when Iโ€™m outside? Thatโ€™s when I feel my best. Thatโ€™s when I shine.

Iโ€™m a loving dog with a heart full of potential, but I need time to adjust to new environments. What I need is a calm, understanding home where I can relax and gradually build my confidence.

Overall, I just want to feel safe and loved, and to show those exact things to a family. Could you be the one to give me that? Iโ€™m on the Urgent List, and time is running outโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜” Please donโ€™t let my chance slip away.

๐Ÿ˜ด Anyone else feel like this on a Monday LOL?

Jasmin, today’s foster feature, has added a ton of joy to her foster home. Check out what they said about her:

“Jasmin (or Jazz, if youโ€™re feeling casual), is a sweet, playful pup who loves running around the yard, especially if thereโ€™s a pickleball involved! When sheโ€™s not busy playing, youโ€™ll find her lounging in the sun or snuggled up by your feet, her favorite spot. Jasmin’s a quick learner and already knows how to sit when asked, plus sheโ€™s all about learning new tricks. Want to keep her calm? Give her an ice cube and watch her chill out (literally!).

In a world where hope seems distant, little Pebbles life is not. She’s free to adopt of foster.

๐Ÿ˜” Why wonโ€™t anyone save me?

My name is Pebbles, and Iโ€™ve been crying out for help, but it feels like no one can hear me…

Despite all the pain Iโ€™ve been through, I’m known to be playful, loving, and sweet. I promise, once you get to know me, Iโ€™ll steal your heart just like Iโ€™ve dreamed of doing.

But… Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ’”. My time is running out, and every day I fear I may be forgotten. Could YOU be the one to save me?

Rufus is a senior dog needing your help recuing him from the walk of death so he can live out his golden years.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ’” Maybe a senior dog like me is meant to be in the shelterโ€ฆ

Hi, Iโ€™m Rufus, and lately, Iโ€™ve been feeling like Iโ€™m starting to lose myself here. I was once a lost stray, and though I was found, I still feel lost. I donโ€™t have a home to call my own, and no one to love me the way Iโ€™ve always wanted.

I might have some skin issues, but that doesnโ€™t change who I am inside. Iโ€™m not asking for muchโ€ฆ just a loving home where I can feel safe. A home with gentle walks, a few snuggles, and maybe a little spot by the window where I can watch the world go by.

But time is running out. Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ˜ข, and Iโ€™m scared of whatโ€™s next. Could you be the one to save me? I promise, if you open your heart to me, I will love you forever.

Mr. Pickles has been locked up for far too long without any bites to adopt him and now needs you to free him from the death march.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ˜” No one ever plays fetch with meโ€ฆ

Hi, Iโ€™m Pickles. Iโ€™ve been here for a while now, just waiting for the right person to see me and choose me. Every day, I watch the other dogs get adopted, while I stay behind. Iโ€™ve had my share of time in this shelter, and honestly? No one has ever shown much interest in me.

But even though Iโ€™ve been here a long time, Iโ€™m still full of love, loyalty, and hope. My heart hasnโ€™t given up yet, and neither have I. I may be a “long-timer,” but that just means I have so much more to give to the right personโ€”a forever family who will see the joy I can bring into their lives.

I dream of the day when I can play fetch in a yard, snuggle on a couch, and feel safe in a home of my own. But Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ’”, and time isnโ€™t on my side. I just need a chanceโ€”a family whoโ€™ll give me the love Iโ€™ve been waiting for.

๐Ÿ’” Is there anyone out there who can help a senior dog like me?

My name is Rufus, and I’m not sure where I belong anymore. I got lost a while back, and though I was found as a stray, I still canโ€™t seem to find my way home. Time keeps slipping by, and Iโ€™m starting to wonder if anyone will ever see me for who I am…

I might have some skin issues but Iโ€™m not asking for much. I just need a warm, cozy place to rest my weary bones and someone who will let me live out my senior years in peace. No trouble, no fussโ€”just gentle walks, some snuggles, and maybe a little spot by the window where I can watch the world go by.

But time is running out. Iโ€™m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ˜ข, and Iโ€™m scared of what comes next. If youโ€™re out there and have space in your heart for an old dog like me, please, I need your help….

Meet today’s Foster Feature: Cleo! โœจ

She has added a ton of love to her foster home. Check out what they said about her:

“Cleo is such a love bug! She loves people, sheโ€™s very playful, and she will keep you entertained with her energetic personality. When sheโ€™s sleepy, she loves to curl up and cuddle with her person for a nap. This kitty would love to be your one and only, and sheโ€™s ready to shower you with all her love and attention.

I found Cleo as a stray in my backyard, and she was such a friendly cat from the start. She came right up to me purring, rubbing up against me, and wanting love. I never fostered before, but I wanted to help Cleo find the forever home she deserves.”

Temporary Animal Shelter resident Monty has an expiration date coming up here pretty quick. You can save his life adopting him for free. Shelter closes at 4pm.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ’” I long for a gentle hand to hold me and for someone to love…

Hey, Iโ€™m Monty. I used to smile, but I stopped because I feel unwanted…

I was found as a stray, alone and scared, and Iโ€™ve been here for a long time. People come and go, but they pass me by without even seeing me. It’s hard to keep hoping when it feels like no one notices me.

Because I’ve been here for so long, trust isnโ€™t easy. But if you give me a chance, I promise Iโ€™ll show you how loving I can be. I even appear to get along with other dogs! I just need a calm, safe home where I can finally relax.

But Iโ€™m on the Urgent List… and time is running out. ๐Ÿ˜ข Can you help me smile again? Can you be the one to give me the love I deserve?

๐Ÿ’” Hey, my nameโ€™s Monty. I used to smile, but I stopped a while ago…

You see, I was found as a stray and have been here for what feels like forever. People come and go, but no one notices me. It gets hard to keep hoping when it feels like no one sees me as the sweet and gentle dog I am.

I might be a little nervous at first, but if you give me a chance, I promise Iโ€™ll show you how loving I can be. I even appear to get along with other dogs, and I know I’d thrive in a calm home where I can feel safe and trust again.

But I’m on the Urgent List ๐Ÿ˜ข and time is running out. Could you be the one to help me smile again?

I donโ€™t understand what happened. The shelter tried to reach out, but no one answered. I keep wondering if I did something wrong. Maybe I wasnโ€™t good enough?

Inmate Anne the kitty has ended up on the short side of getting euthanized. She’s adoptable for free.

Adoption Forms

๐Ÿ˜ข Hi, Iโ€™m Anneโ€ฆ and the tears in my eyes say that Iโ€™m not doing well.

Iโ€™ve always been known for my sweet, gentle heart. I love to cuddle, I love to purr, and I love to show affection. But right now, Iโ€™m struggling. Iโ€™m battling an upper respiratory infection, and itโ€™s made me feel weaker than Iโ€™ve ever been.

The shelter has been giving me the care I need, but itโ€™s not enough. The stress of the shelter makes it hard for me to heal fully. I need a quiet, loving home where I can rest, recover, and truly feel safe. ๏ฟฝ

With a little TLC, Iโ€™ll be back to my playful, loving self in no time โ€” I just need someone to help me get there. ๐Ÿ’– I donโ€™t want to be just another sad face in a shelter. But time is running out. Iโ€™m on the Urgent List, and I donโ€™t have much time left.

Could you be the one to give me the chance I so desperately need?
